Bad news: Christian T. Steigies has problems on real Amiga hardware:
However, the current (TLS) kernels have problems with the ariadne2 network
card, which, I think all Amigas here but crest have (ariadne1 in crest).
I get error messages like this with 2.6.32 and 2.6.38
eth0: mismatched read page pointers 4f vs 4c.
Does that ring a bell anywhere? That’s running 2.6.38-4 plus
my patches, I think, so I expect 2.6.38-5 won’t change this.
I think I've seen that on occasion on the EtherNEC (another NE2k
variant) under heavy traffic. From all I can tell it was harmless
(i.e. TCP sorts it out for you).
The transmit timeouts look bad though - is anything ever going out on the wire?
For some reason or other, I haven't had EtherNEC compiled in for quite
some time now. Perhaps it's time to give that another good beating.
Something might have broken in the NE2k code for m68k.
Cheers,
Michael
